"Work Ethic" in Germany
A few years ago we had a post on si. from a tech guy who had left Germany to work outside Dublin, Ireland. He was making competitive money,, had an apartment or house, owned a car and extra money to spend on travel etc. He stated if he stayed in Germany ,he would never had been able to afford the things he got working in Dublin due to the taxes in Germany...

I found it interesting the young folks leaving as the Country taxes them more and more to support the welfare of the elderly and other social programs.. Sad situation.
